...whom she bore 14 children, served as printer to the province of Maryland and publisher of its first newspaper, the Maryland Gazette. The province's second newspaper, the Maryland Journal, is also published by a woman: Mary Katherine Goddard. In addition to her editorial work, the indefatigable Miss Goddard, 38, manages Baltimore's busiest printing firm, owns a bookstore, and became city postmaster last year. In her career, Miss Goddard is following the example of her mother, Sarah Updike Goddard, former publisher of the Providence Gazette...
...Live Here Anymore, she wrestles her feelings down with words. She won't let go until she's pinned down the fine distinctions, until she's exposed all the vacuums. This is the talent overlooked by all those who have resented Kael all along for dictating opinions. They miss the point entirely: we don't learn what to think about films from Kael, we learn how to think about them (and not in academic explication, but in terms of gut reaction). She shows us how to take a reaction like "yeah, it was o.k., but not spectacular" and run with...
...Leontes and Sicilia at the end, where all the seemingly disparate elements are miraculously tied together with a triple knot. Kahn underlines this by having Time appear wordlessly in the first half bearing a barren branch, and in the second half bearing a green and, finally, a gold one.

Thus, while the play is bipartite...
...entrusted both roles to Maria Tucci, since the two characters are on stage together only in the final scene. Kahn gets around this problem by cutting Perdita's half dozen lines and using a stand-in facing away from the audience. I suppose it's ungallant to suggest that Miss Tucci can no longer really pass for a teenager, but she makes an appealing attempt. As Queen Hermione, she can speak eloquently when required to, and stand immobile for several minutes without blinking an eye when called upon to be a statue. Eight-year-old John Christian Browning is back...
Bette Henritze once more plays Paulina, who takes guff from nobody. She finds a good balance between righteous indignation and humor, and rises to the task of becoming a sort of female Prospero, guiding the course of events. Miss Henritze's voice does not have as wide a pitch range as one would like, but she uses what she has with impressive skill. William Larsen also repeats as her husband Antigonus, who is pursued and eaten by a (wisely stylized) bear...
